It only happened Saturday so the history phinfessor has probably been to busy to post.
Old Ben must be rolling over in his grave knowing he missed the party.
Young kids are idiots at times, sure, and as much as I hate to say this, what they did was well within their rights.
āUniversity officials tell 7 On Your Side the event was not sanctioned by the college and was held off-campus.ā
Even if you are the most ignorant racist puppy kicking jerk, you are protected under the first amendment, are you not?

In todayās world Iām not sure rights trump political correctnessā¦ Talk radio is blowing up in the upstate and news reports are stating some students may face suspensionā¦
There is a religious aspect being brought up by many voicing their displeasure.
Having a Christmas party dressed as crips has drawn the attention of religious groups as well as those making this a racial issue.
Talk about dumb,how about a whole house full of itā¦
Glad to hear neither of my kids were at the party.
I think some of SAEās leadership is in deep water.

This this is stupid thing to do. but it was off campus, not affiliated with Clemson. So Iām not sure how you suspend someone for this?
What a bunch of dumbassedness!

Stupid !!
A bad day fishing is much better than a good day at work.
I wanted to name my boat āBo-Fricaā too but coming to and from Bowman might have been a challenge if the locals figured out my little joke.
plus half the kids were wearing Bloods colors. One had a Tupac shirt on (who was shot to death by the Crips in 1996)
As if being inappropriate, tone-deaf, and culturally insensitive isnāt bad enough, but then you gonna go and wear rival gang colors to the party? Come on, man.

If the university recognizes them as a fraternity and they have a frat sponsored party the university can step in. Location of the party makes little difference.

The reports I read earlier this morning did not mention a frat. The university can suspend the frat, and I would think the students as well.
The party was put on by Sigma Alpha Epsilon.
Their activities are on suspension while the school and fraternity sort it out.

At what age does it occur to a group of people sitting around discussing ideas for a party that this was a bad idea??
Iām gonna go out on a limb and say nobody has been watching the news in the frat house.
Can there be any other explanation?
awww cāmon itās funny

I donāt see why the university president had to get involved. So what, some redneck white kids did something redneck. Move along, nothing to get offended about here.

I agree Dave. Not everything stupid is racist.
Nobody *****ed and moaned about the white trash party a while back.
